  • Title: Finding hepatic portal venous gas in an adult patient: its significance.
    Author: Gan HN, Tan KY, Chong CK, Tay KH.
    Journal: Singapore Med J; 2006 Sep; 47(9):814-6. PubMed ID: 16924366.
    Abstract:
    Portal venous gas is a well-established radiological finding in neonates. With the advancement in diagnostic imaging, more cases are being reported in adults. We present a 55-year-old man with radiological findings of both portal venous gas and pneumatosis intestinalis secondary to ischaemic necrotising enterocolitis, with subsequent fatality. The significance of finding portal venous gas and its possible aetiology is discussed.
